Sam's First Outing

Sam's First Outing___from my sketchbookIt's already baseball season! I took my sketchbook to the field today, thinking I would sketch one of my son's teammates, Joe. Joe's mom won my donation at the silent auction fundraiser a few weeks ago. I donated a small painting of "whoever" wanted their ball player sketched in oils, and Joe's mom, Jennifer bid the highest! What I did not know was that Joe had pitched earlier in the week. My son has been injured and I really wasn't expecting him on the mound, but here he is...with a little sketch in the middle and my make-shift scorecard at left (he played 2 innings, and had 4 strikeouts, 2 base on balls and a couple of earned runs...yikes...preseason craziness! (also had a base hit at the plate!) Welcome back, Sam! Now go put ice on that arm!

About Me

http://www.v-vaughan.com is my web site and the best place to find out about me...I tend to work in spans or PROJECTS. I did a 6 year project about Texas, resulting in a BIG FUN MAP...Recently I painted our LAST YEAR ON THE FARM, and that began my life as one of the first DAILY PAINTERS. My current project is called PASSING AMERICA...and that's what my new blog is about. The small works are my studies for larger works that are all for sale. Let me know if you see one you like. Join my group and get the painting in a daily e-mail that you can view and toss! E-mail me to join vvaughan8@yahoo.com
It will save you the trouble of coming here...My thanks to The Creator who makes ALL THINGS possible!
